Joerg Schilling: > It may be that this is a problem caused by "hald" That might be a better theory, indeed. I kill on my machine the processes hald-addon-storage which appear in ps -ef with the addresses of my burner drives. I once had a case where hald on an USB drive caused cdrecord to report for a CD-RW in SAO mode: ------------------------------------------------ Sending CUE sheet... cdrecord: WARNING: Drive returns wrong startsec (0) using -150 Writing pregap for track 1 at -150 cdrecord: Input/output error. write_g1: scsi sendcmd: no error CDB: 2A 00 FF FF FF 6A 00 00 1F 00 status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION) Sense Bytes: 70 00 05 00 00 00 00 0A 2A 00 00 90 30 05 00 00 Sense Key: 0x5 Illegal Request, Segment 0 Sense Code: 0x30 Qual 0x05 (cannot write medium - incompatible format) Fru 0x0 ------------------------------------------------ This looks very similar to the reported messages with DVD-R. A CD-RW TAO session failed with: ------------------------------------------------ Track 01: 2 of 7 MB written (fifo 100%) [buf 96%] 40.0x.cdrecord: Input/output error. write_g1: scsi sendcmd: no error CDB: 2A 00 00 00 04 D8 00 00 1F 00 status: 0x2 (CHECK CONDITION) Sense Bytes: 70 00 05 00 00 00 00 0A 2A 30 06 90 21 02 00 00 Sense Key: 0x5 Illegal Request, Segment 0 Sense Code: 0x21 Qual 0x02 (invalid address for write) Fru 0x0 ------------------------------------------------ The problem did not appear with cdrskin. Probably because libburn opens the device file with option O_EXCL. This is no insurance against hald problems, of course. hald and burning of sequential media do not play well together.
